Augur of circularity

Black people up to 48 times more likely to be stopped and searched in richest areas of London Research found extreme disproportion in use of police power in districts such as Richmond-upon-Thames

You have to give them time to change; it's only been 27 years since the Macpherson Report declared the Met institutionally racist...

I agree that we need to spread the best info we have.

I trust the people who talked to me about EVs. I do not know you nor your experience in the matter.

I need you to post like you are quoting people and not bots. Take a breath

This is as per subject matter experts I know, gen. sorry if you are bothered but like there it is.

The point of my 'yes and' post was less unnecessary vehicles instead of just switching to another unnecessary vehicle.

Also EVs are MUCH heavier than gas cars of the same "kind" (sedan, suv, etc) which destroys roads faster, which leads to more microplastics in the water and more resources needed for road upkeep (& more gas consumption in repairs).

Better and accessible transit/infrastructure is key for survival

Always remember that EVs might be slightly better than gas powered cars, but that at its most basic, a city made for EVs is still a city made for cars. We need to shift to #PlacesForPeople not parking; roll/walkable places connected by transit: experience a city, don’t just drive thru it.

I am routinely struck silent by the fact that we can stop HIV in its tracks, literally zero transmission, and as a society we just choose not to.

Challenging your brain helps keep it healthy. Here's how to do it Doctors often advise exercising your brain to stay sharp but stretching your brain might be the better description.

And get vaccinated against shingles. It not only prevents an incredibly painful rash but growing research shows the vaccinated have a lower risk of developing dementia.

This is AI, sorry everyone! This guy didn't make this. The guy he credits in his pinned post ALSO didn't make it. I found the guy who "made" it on instagram and he didn't make it either: a computer did. Oh well!

“Just Like Mama”

Think always saying he has dementia lets him off the hook and is quite offensive to the cruelty of the disease, he knows what he is doing this is like no dementia I’ve encountered

Go read Persepolis.

Or maybe watch the movie.

I hope it gets a guffaw outta ya haha!

My whole body recoiled, full body flashback

MAD About DC ft Chip Zdasrky | DC YouTube video by DC

Ok Chip got me actually laughin w this one...

I have been a huge MAD fan since I can remember. This is a thrill 🥲🥲🥲

FOC is TODAY so please preorder at your local comic shop!

Obviously humans are still actually responsible. But you can see how this is supposed to work. They are very obviously using a machine to absorb some part of the responsibility for a monstrous crime.

Maybe they relied on AI to pick targets. But they bombed the school twice, hitting it again 40 minutes after the initial strike, in order to kill survivors and first responders. The mere *existence* of AI means no one has to be held responsible for this crime against humanity

I WANT those books to sell! In fact, if they sell enough copies to justify another printing, then I'll get to see my new name on them even sooner!

3. Changing my name is something I needed to do, but it is frankly terrifying, especially right now. (4/8)

If you want to read more about my thoughts on this, I'll have a newsletter coming tomorrow that goes more in depth

2. Please do not boycott my old books for having my old name on them! Think of them as limited-edition, pre-pokemon evolution copies of Sonido Reyes books lol (3/8)

1. Sonora is not a dead name FOR ME SPECIFICALLY. Not every trans person is the same, but I have a fond relationship with my old name. It just doesn't suit me anymore, and that's okay. Call me Sonido going forward, but there's no need to avoid mentioning my old name when it's relevant. (2/8)

call your reps. This package was pushed through the house.

ATTENTION CALIFORNIA

I have truly made converting people away from TurboTax and onto FreeTaxUSA like a key goal in life. it is ENRAGING that we are forced to live like this because of one company lobbying to forcibly monetize something that other people’s governments just do for them

GOOD TO KNOW thank you for this key addendum!!!

NO NO NO YOU DON’T

federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL
